    I lost notepad icon. How to get t back ?

    In the "Search box" enter: notepad and then select "Notepad" located a the top displayed list. After Notepad opens, pin it (right click on the icon in the taskbar) to the Taskbar.

    Opened documents for Notepad reference 2 icons in Taskbar


    I have been noticing that whenever I open up existing TXT documents, I get them all referencing the same Notepad icon in the Taskbar; this is the way it is supposed to work. However, if I open up the Notepad application from scratch to get a new document, an additional Notepad icon in the Taskbar is generated, to which that new document reference. *Mad Additional new documents also reference this additional icon, so at most I only 2 icons.

    This is unacceptable as real estate on the Taskbar is scarce. I would like for all Notepad documents to reference the same, solitary Notepad icon. How do I fix this?

    All documents seem to be running Version 1511 (OS Build 10586.318)
